    greenbee. I did my wardrobe and found it hard. A few things I found difficult to put in the bag but I did. In the end though I was pleased as it was tidier and I knew that what was in there fit. I was sad when I put a pair of walking trousers in the bag. I loved them and remembered where I got them and who I was with. But they dont fit at all. Daft I know but its funny how certain things bring back memories.

    Had roasties for dinner with the best potatoes I have ever grown, and 'free' because they were the ones at the bottom of the sack which had sprouted so I planted them.

    Quite right - at times they are very grumpy!!! and quite scary :eek::eek::eek: Particularly if they have just been woken up or are hungry - funny that!:p
    We could change the stars / hearts things.

    Those of you who don't have a hope in hell of completing the stars list could post your own list of five daily things (a different five for each day, hopefully spread evenly around the different rooms of your dwelling) either the night before or first thing in the morning (we don't want any retrograde cheating!). Try and put something a little bit challenging on it.

    Then we could have the black run/on piste group which would be the three levels for a star and the nursery slopes/poodling off piste group who would be awarded hearts for their efforts. You can mix and match but it's not compulsory.

    What is the verdict of the jury?

    I think this would be great for me - I need that incentive to keep going.....:o

    Fedupand - you've been awarded.

    Still no sign of Pigpen and the new list. I feel it's going to be a long night ~sigh~

    Well done - I guess I just know it'll take quite a bit of time, and also that it'll be depressing as there's still quite a bit in there that is too small! But I'm NOT going to get rid of that at the moment, as I'm (hopefully) still losing weight and given my current situation can't afford to buy new stuff when the things I'm wearing get too big!

    I really MUST get off my bottom and go for that walk. Then I might (just might, please note) have a quick look at what could come out of the wardrobe...

    Hello All,

    Ive been trying to finish building my drawers.....going for my third heart :rolleyes:

    There is not a chance in hell i was going to ever get any stars, but I will have to resign myself to the fact that Im only getting two hearts. I have built two of the drawers and have blisters on my hands :rolleyes:

    Good thing is the drawers are solid.....

    Ive looked out clean bedding for all the beds, but not actually got round to putting it on!

    I have however looked out:

    My ID (passport AND DL)
    Tenancy Agreement
    Letter from administrator
    Council Tax Bill

    Ive also got bank statements, credit card statements and other bits and bobs, but I cant think what else they will need. Any suggestions??

    Tomorrow I need to

    Go to Housing Benefit/Council Tax Offices
    Go to Job Centre/DSS office
    Go to Estate Agents about Rent
    Post letters to creditors Recorded Delivery
    Go into old work to pick up memory stick I left in my PC!
    Use facilities in HR managers office.
    Amend the FAB Cv that Greenbee has just sent me!!!
    Post it on every available website and send to every job I can find....

    Doh!!!! I need to fill in the administration forms and find out about my P45!!

    Then come home again and start flying....
    :)Sometimes lurking, sometimes posting, but always flying:)
